Artist 'Transforms' Parked Cars Into More Cleverly-Parked Cars

DateTuesday, September 23, 2008 at 7:54AM
French artist Guillaume Reymond has made his own Transformer, creating a new art installation out of cars of all shapes and sizes. And being in France, they have plenty of weird-shaped cars, so that worked out beautifully.

I really like the Transformer that's apparently auditioning for Saturday Night Fever. Nice form. Anyway, Reymond used service vehicles from the city of Vervey to construct his Transformer, which probably wouldn't do us any good if Decepticons ever attacked, because look at him - he's a pretty lazy Autobot. There would simply be no room for him in Revenge of the Fallen. Unless, of course, we've just misinterpreted "fallen" all this time.

The installation is pretty cool, primarily because nobody's ever claimed it before. I mean, it doesn't take a lot of effort to make this, right? But he's still the first one I know of. (Hey look, nobody thought screen printing a bunch of soup cans was art once upon a time.)

Here's a how'd he do that video of Reymond's transforming Transformer.

I understand his next loving tribute to Michael Bay will feature oil riggers drilling a hole through a giant asteroid made delicious French cheeses.
